To overcome the problems of gene and drug delivery, nanotechnology has gained interest in recent years. Nanosystems with different compositions and biological properties have been extensively investigated for drug and gene delivery applications. Nanotechnology in drug delivery has been manifested into nanoparticles that can have unique properties both in vitro and in vivo, especially in targete...

Due to the increasing use of wireless communications, infrastructure-less networks such as Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) should be highly considered. DTN is most suitable where there is an intermittent connection between communicating nodes such as wireless mobile ad hoc network nodes. In general, a message sending node in DTN copies the message and transmits it to nodes which it encounters. A...

Wireless sensor networks demand energy efficient and application specific medium access control protocol when deployed in critical areas which are not frequently accessible. In such areas, the residual energy of nodes also become important along with the efficient data delivery. Many techniques using adaptive duty cycle approach are suggested by researchers to improve the data delivery performa...

The robot is being used in many applications for a different domain. delivery was developed, and the battery placed power source. Considering abnormal condition/situation during disaster period, energy critical issue robot. To overcome this condition, three kinds of sources were identified such as (i) direct energy, (ii) solar (iii) flywheel storage energy. All systems designed found that can b...

The research performed is dedicated to the problem of energy efficiency analysis modern delivery drones. 12 models are chosen provide a statistical calculations average ratio mass and flight range drone. method least squares used analyze trends. conclusion made that most successful companies apply similar range. drones such able carry from 1.3 2.27 kg cargo have 10 24 km. That allows judge abou...

We attempted to design and assess an example of a sustainable networked delivery (SND) system: a hybrid business-to-consumer book delivery system. This system is intended to reduce costs, achieve significant reductions in energy consumption, and reduce environmental emissions of critical local pollutants and greenhouse gases. The energy consumption and concomitant emissions of this delivery sys...

We consider mobile agents of limited energy, which have to collaboratively deliver data from specified sources of a network to a central repository. Every move consumes energy that is proportional to the travelled distance. Thus, every agent is limited in the total distance it can travel. We ask whether there is a schedule of agents’ movements that accomplishes the delivery. We provide hardness...
